Hi everyone,
Today I am sharing a Christmas Card:
This is also my card for the following Challenge:
- Neglected Stuff Challenge 12/25 - where the idea is to use your neglected stuff plus you have to state what you used. I used the decoupage image (5+ years old), designer papers from 2016 and the border punch.
The main image is by Craft Creations - Poinsettia Basket - which is diecut decoupage aka paper tole. I popped all the pieces out then trimmed any little daggy bits around the edges of each piece - then layered them together using 1mm Dimensionals. I added some Stampin' Up Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details Glitter Glue to the centres of the poinsettias.
The image was layered onto Kaisercraft Forest Cardstock. All the layers were trimmed to either 1/16" or 1/8" using my Perfect Layers Guides.
The designer papers are by My Mind's Eye - Comfort and Joy - which are long-retired. I adore this collection and it has been one of my all-time favourite Christmas Collections.
I added a scalloped border to the centre panel using a Fiskars Scallop Border Punch and the Forest Cardstock - but it pretty much blends into the background: oh well..... I probably should have popped this panel up in hindsight. I have had this border punch for many years and it was probably the first border punch I ever bought.
The sentiment is by Kaisercraft - Cockatoo Carols - which was released in 2023. All Kaisercraft paper pads have a bunch of sentiments at the back so very handy. I popped the sentiment up on 1mm Dimensionals.
Once I had completed my card front, I glued it to a white card base using Tombow Mono Multi Glue.
Finished size is 4-7/8" x 6-7/8" or 123mm x 174mm.
Thanks for stopping by!
Jocelyn
